Trouble in Crimea

Obama is weak. There, I said what so many "journalists", reporters, newsroom hacks and anyone else who claims to bring objective, unbiased information to the masses refuse to say.

Over these past few days however, I have noticed a pretty strong response from the MSM against Putin, and his actions. I haven't witnessed them lashing out at Obama for a lack of action, but rather praising him for it. A stern warning and threats of sanctions, and other non-violent intervention; These will do absolutely nothing except further anger the new Axis. The Cold War may finally go hot, and we were too short sighted and eager to progress our social efforts to prove to the world that we are not racist, to actually elect a competent president who has the cojones to deal with a tyrant like Putin.

For a president who has agreed that the invasion of Crimea was wrong, he sure hasn't reacted in a manner which would help reverse the situation, and guarantee the interests of the Ukrainian people. My support lies with the poor folks in Ukraine who are opposed to the ties they have with Russia, and desperately want at least some form of a freer market with the Europeans, and maybe even us. I can hardly blame the Ukrainian military for surrendering. Being outnumbered and outgunned, it would have been suicide to go against a military several times larger than your own, especially since they are about equal in terms of technology and strategy both being former Soviet nations.

This next section goes out to anyone in the US who believes Putin is a better leader than Obama. You are absolute scum. People such as yourself fall so easily for the propaganda put out by Russia, and are so caught up in a good vs. evil mindset, you cannot see the error in your belief. Obama is no great leader by any measure, I'm in no way defending his horrible choices as president, and his absolutely idiotic approach towards damn near every single political issue that our country has and is dealing with. But that in no way makes either of them better than the other. They're shitty, just in different, very separate ways.
